Hello all,
Im a new Moomba owner, i bought a used 2001 Outback and have enjoyed a couple of good hours on thewater when all of the sudden the boat died while running through a no wake area. The boat would start back up but would die again quickly when i tried to accelerate, first thought was out of fuel since the fuel gage didn't seem to move off of full. After limping it back to the dock and running to the fuel station and only getting 13 gallons in i realized i wasn't out of gas.
While looking around the engine and looking in the carb i saw these beads, does this mean i have water in the fuel?
Also, i noticed i have an inline fuel filter and no water separator that i can find? Are there any filters on the carb itself or just the one inline filter?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks all..
